welfare of the whole body u oar
p1oplc?
The Republican patty Il i'll / lnIuor-
lily i'll Cecil county. Not by 4 big mar
gin, but by very narrow one. Fifteen
votes in each Of the nine districts Of
the county taken from the Democratic
list would wipe it out.
The duty of the Republicans of Cecil
county is plain.
They hayc within their ranks scores
of competent and experienced men of
affairs, whose official course would be
dictated by regard for the welfare of all
the people. A ticket composed of
such men should be presented by the
Republican convention for the suffrage
of our voters. As L necessary prehml-
nary to that result, all diSsenslons and
differences as have heretofore eAisted
within the ranks OF the party should De
amicably adjusted. The Democratic
ticket clr oe defeated. The people
lrc ready 10 change their local leaders.
Therefore /, Republicans everywhere
Throughout ;ne County sink all iIcIionai
1isagreements, and remembering Thai
as a minority party it can only succeed
by presenting candidates superior to
those Of It's opponents, deserve public
confidence by selecting men whose
| qualification will be an earnest of good
government, ana who will command the
support of a majority of our tho ughttu1
! and tax paying citizens,
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1887-07-30

ELIHU has i bari That settled it.
And yet the facts indicate that Mr..
German and his lleutenants had decided
upon this nomination over year ago
As the american states the ingenuity
of the machine was equal to the occa-
sion. Men of straw were set up in
different parts OF the state to attract
local support and give an air of indie
pendence and personal preference,
booms were inflated with commendaDle
zeal, while the bosses behind their
masks chuckled at the skill of their
agents and the gullibiljty of the public.
The old trick of diverting attention
from themselves and distracting the
aim of their opponents succeeded to a
charm,
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1887-07-30

REPUBLICANS of Cecil, while you read
the call OF your primaries which will be
held on Saturday August Goth, remem-
Der that the most important issue we
have with our political opponents this
iall, is the character, and business quail
lflcation of candidates for important
local offices. If we nominate our best
men, those who are above the influence
ofpetty local leaders they will be elected.
Any other class of nominations will fail.
We can't trlfe with public sentiment
this fall by personal scheming to secure
nominations for individual uses. Voters
IN Cecil will scan more closely than
ever the relative qualifications of can
didates. The warning 81 intend to
vote for the best mans heard OF
every hand. Let US as Republicans
heed it by looking solely to the qualiti-
cation of every man we nominate and
not make single nomination in the
interest of or at the dictation of any
clique, clan, cotorie or faction. If we
do, we are beaten in advance.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1887-07-30
\ CONTRAST

Mr. German is certainly stlrewd.
He chcrishcs a sincere respect for
the fellow who antagorlZcs him with
ability, and when the opportunity
arrives heaps Goals OF fire upon his
cncmv's head by treating him with
magnanimity. Mr.. German has
Just treated VIM. Pinckncy Whytc
that way, by having him nominated
for the Attorney-Gcncralship. We
commend this plan to our cotemDo-
ra-v OF the Cecil Democrat. The
great trouble with Mr.. Cruikshank is
that when he bclabors Mr.. German,
he becomes spitetul, and bIacksuards
him personally. His antagonism
dcsccnds 10 the howl Of the disap-
pointed o!tiCe-scckyr, the whine 81
the sore head. OF course !, never
amounts to anything. T4kc TIL.

THE Washington postofflce is a bone
of contention, and MIR. Cleveland is
said to be in a state of mind on ac-
count of it. The trouble is to pick
out a postmaster. There are so many
claimants and SO many conflicting in
terests in the District that it is extremely
difficult to choose a Washington Dem
ocrat without arousing much soreness
of spirit. MIR. Villas solution IS to put
a Michigan man in the place. The
president hesitates to choose an out
slider, but may decide to do so as the
least of a number of uncomfortable

The suns heat in the course of Io,-
10000 years, according to Sir William
Thompson's calculations, will be SO
greatly reduced that 1t will be INSULT
cient to support life on this planet.
However the evil day IS long way off,
and perhaps, IN the meantime, we may
find way to store up some of the
superAuous heat which is expressing us
now. There is quite an amount in
these July days which we could very
comfortably dispense with.

Dcr' .rir:-For months past there has
been :. Singular unanimity among the
people III the upper portion of the county
in favor OF Mr. Thomas &. Bond, of the
Seventh district, for county commits,
sioner His intelligence, business expert
ence, economical habits and thorough in
tegrity have pointed him ont as conspicu
ously the man for the place and quiet
Democrats, not scheming trading politi-
cians have expressed their determination
to vote for him. But now the bosses at
Elkton have declared that Mr.. Bond
must not be nominated because 'he is an
old stalwart.' If this is the plan Of the
campaign of 1857 there would seem to be
very little prospect of success. What
the Republican convention should do is tt
nominate a ticket which shall challenge
the respect and confidence of the people
of the county, any other course must re-
suit in dismal failure. To this end let the
best men of the party be sent to the
county convention. Not tools OF the Elk
ton bosses, but conservative men of good
judgmedt and having an honest desire tc
secure the best interests Of the people OF
the whole county. REPCETLCAN.

A CHICAGO paper puts it thus: "The
best anti poverty society for a multi
tude of people would be to enroll their
names among teetotalers. Whisky and
beer money thus saved would make a
million people rich, who, with con-
tinued tipping, will end up in the
poor house"
